 Grammy Award - Wikipedia Light!
Unlike the Academy Awards, for which the eligibility period begins January 1, the eligibility period for the Grammys begins October 1, which results in September being considered the Christmas sales period for the music industry (in which artists generally release big albums to qualify for the next year's Grammy).
Prior to the first live Grammys telecast in 1971 on ABC (CBS bought the rights in 1973 after moving the ceremony to Nashville, Tennessee; the American Music Awards were created for ABC as a result), a series of taped annual specials in the 1960s called The Best on Record were broadcast on NBC.
Christopher Cross (Grammy Awards of 1981) is the only artist to receive the "Big Four" (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist) in a single ceremony.

 Paul Simon - The neck of my guitar -
One of his best experiences with his father, according to Paul, was when he was sitting on his bed in his room singing to Alice In Wonderland, and his father walked by and heard him.
More tracks from The Paul Simon Songbook were included with recent compositions on their 10 October 1966 album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, which refined the folk-rock sound hastily released on Sounds of Silence.
The album´s title track featuring Garfunkel´s soaring vocals was a massive hit and one of the best selling records of the decade, staying #1 on the charts for six full weeks and on the charts for far more than a year.

However, the Grammys, usually held in February, (last of what are considered the big three music awards shows, including the BMA and AMA shows) are considered the approximate equivalent to the Academy Award, in the music world.
Some feel that because Grammy voters tend to vote conservatively, and are marketed to by record companies, the most widely-recognized Grammys tend to go to either well-established artists or those being hyped by the recording industry.

Your best bet if you can't find a disc you want is to try and order it from your favorite record store, they should be able to tell you for certain whether or not it is in print.
For my money, the ASV set is the best single disk introduction to the Carter Family available, it includes 25 tracks, a healthy sampling of their most important songs, drawn primarily from their somewhat rougher, but more soulful, original RCA recordings with a few important later recordings added.
The two "Best of" collections, also from Rhino, collect all of his big hits from his heyday in the 60's (16 tracks on each), and are probably a better choice for all but the most ardent fans.

 Gene Puerling - GRAMMY winning vocal jazz arranger
From his auspicious beginnings as a founding member of the vocal jazz group the Hi-Lo's, with whom he recorded thirteen albums between the years of 1953-1964, Gene revealed the talent and promise that would later be fully realized with his work as director, arranger and performer with the Singers UnLimited.
Given the complexity of the arrangements, the The Singers Unlimited did not perform live, feeling that the studio was their ideal medium of expression.
He received a Grammy for his vocal arrangement of "A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square" as recorded by The Manhattan Transfer, and a total of fourteen Grammy nominations.

There are some scary arrangements which are overly cerebral and short-sighted attempts at integrating disco and jazz.
Gene Puerling's arrangements for them were, and still are, cutting edge, harmonically.
This work was recorded mostly in the late 50s and although not as technically brilliant as Magic Voices, it is more purely jazzlike and therefore more pleasing to my tastes.
